      @@MRacer001 The problem with Windows Me was that it was originally meant to be a compatible upgrade for Windows 98SE users, but it failed at actually being Windows 98SE-compatible, because Microsoft had the brilliant idea to remove some DOS support and break some driver compatibility. Even Microsoft's own marketing department had no clue why the thing existed.
      So, it kind of stood on its own... it wasn't true Windows 9x but neither was Windows NT, so compatibility with devices was a nightmare for users.

    As you can see in 2:20, all capacitors in the bottom cards are somewhat popped out, sign of malfunction. If you tested the top card in your 1-card benchmarks, it all went fine. Adding the second presumably broken card may induce some malfunction in the whole system. Have you tested the bottom card alone??

      lol. Well, you know. the Voodoo FX was built around the concept of SLI on a single card.
      They never got past 2 chips on one card, and it sucked, but they designed the thing, rather over-optimistically to use up to 16 chips on a single graphics card. Maybe even 32.
      I suspect their architecture would have fallen flat on it's face trying to actually get any meaningful performance out of 32 way SLI, even with the advantage of them all physically on a single board...
      But hey, they tried.
      Though... They fell apart around that time, and their corpse was bought by Nvidia...
      I can only guess that's where Nvidia's SLI tech came from...

  • @mrdummy_nl

    Why did i see broken caps on one of the cards? You can see difference in caps heads between two cards. One is perfect flat, but second, all caps are blow up.
    Blow up caps will disturb power on the card, and might crash faster.
    Fix all blow caps first on the card, then test again for stability.
    Cuz you showed the picture of both cards i can see one card is not trustful due blowed caps.

      My first PC (that was actually mine) was an HP office affair with a GeForce 6200 TC. TC stands for "Turbo Cache", and what that means is it steals system memory, like integrated graphics do. I figure the only reason they bothered including it was because the motherboard had no integrated graphics at all. It was slightly better than integrated graphics, I'll give it that, and it actually ran games from the same era and before reasonably well at low resolution. I gave it away once I upgraded, to some guy that had been playing Ragnarok Online on an old computer with shitty integrated graphics.

      What did you upgrade to, Juan? I have an old AMD Socket 939 board (Abit NF-95) with a Geforce 6100 IGP built into the chip-set. It was fine for older games and I still find it very useful testing and silent running (although the heat-sink on the Northbridge gets bloody hot even when not under heavy load). I would say that the only games I could run with it now would be Half-Life 2 and the MAME emulator. But back in the day it was hot stuff compared to the competition.

  • @666vraptor

    I know why did it crash all the time. If you will look at the video you will notice that one of the cards had all its capacitors inflated. That means one of the cards wasn't operating as it should have. Just recently i upgraded my old Asus p5b deluxe board and i had 5 capacitors inflated on it. The bios was running wild. The date changed by itself from 2017 to 2099 and back. (I shot a video on it) I upgraded my comp but i was sorry to throw the old board away, so i changed 5 capacitors and now it runs smooth. Same with video cards, when its a crapy card, the capacitors are crap too. It works but if you try to load them they will crash. :)

    • @CheapSushi
      @CheapSushi 6 років тому +13

      They do all their videos so half assed and rushed with shit attitudes, so I'm not surprised they didn't notice.

    • @QuadTubeChannel
      @QuadTubeChannel 6 років тому +6

      I remember the 'capacitor curse' around the year 2000. Built some systems for folks and they started coming back having gone down, even boards from good brands like Gigabyte. So disheartening especially when you're making peanuts to begin with. Tried telling them this was a manufacturing error and even the biggest retailers got stung, but in the end I just though you know what sod this..I'll just replace it and give up telling folks I know a bit about IT. Oh well..

    • @serraramayfield9230
      @serraramayfield9230 5 років тому

      CheapSushi Also realize that the cards have essentially become so cheap that it’s probably more cost-effective just to buy another card that has more performance by itself.

      After watching the video, it may have been the video card with the bad caps crashing the SLI.

    • @dcheverie

      Yeah, the one on the left definitely had bad caps. And I would say that's exactly why SLI didn't work. I can't believe they didn't notice that. I thought they were pros.. Starting to lose faith in them now..

    • @VGMRealm
      @VGMRealm 6 років тому +4

      Yeah, allot of these guys know the tech but they honestly dont really do repairs. i got banned from Chris Pirillos youtube channel for making corrections in comments because he would give some horrible off the wall answers to things that where blatantly untrue. Linus is a cool dude and knows his stuff from a tech point but board level stuff is another thing if you never delved into it even basic stuff like caps. thats kinda why Louis Rossmann called him out about the GPU thing a while back. ua-cam.com/video/E9aZZxNptp0/v-deo.html
